Nope, only whats posted from the 'consultation' on TFL's web site.

The LTDA officers seem optimistic, but in seems a co-incidence Metrocab are re-launching at the present time.

I guess we will find out soon.

From the more selfish point of view, my old workhorse has another years extension come its plating/overhall, in December, so I hope the market will have some choice by the time i'm out cab hunting.

I take it like me you work nights over the weekend?!!

lol some say I don't work at all but I think you are much too astute to fall for that nonsence.

I went out at 10 last night and finished at 4-15 and grossed about 210. I would be interested to know how you guys did down there for the same number of hours?

Regards

Just a few questions that you might answer for a man of constant sorrow.

Who is in charge of the website? Will the website be professionally run? What is your policy in regard to troublemakers? What is your policy for Banning undesirables? What is your policy in respect of misrepresentation and defamation?

I have several other questions but they can wait.

sorry guys the region i am in is north west (widnes) i think we can all agree on one thing and that is the job is hard enough without having to bring in the local council and causing what did actually happen in an area of manchester, that dreaded word DEREGULATION! i dont wish to see it in the town i am in and think the best way to prevent it would be to keep the local council out of any silly squabbles that may arise ... mediation between the parties involved would decrease the input of council especially the guy who now runs our shop ... the very same john finlow who deregulated stockport.
